These plants were selected for their productivity, resistance, resilience, hardiness, and beauty in tough situations, like community plots, low maintenance yards, and exposed rooftops. 2017 was another warm year (hottest on record) with periodic droughts, pest and disease outbreaks, and ferocious storms with gusty winds.

Mossies are tough as nails, approved for beginners, fun for experts. The categories cover ornamental, vegetable, and eclectic gardening. The selections range from the common to the obscure, but in most cases all are easy to find and just as easy to grow.
